An area-optimality study of floorplanning
2004
Proceedings of the 2004 international symposium on Physical design - ISPD '04
A novel algorithm for rectangular floorplanning with guaranteed 100% area utilization is used to construct new sets of floorplanning benchmarks. By minimizing the maximum block aspect ratio subject to a zero-dead-space constraint, example zero-dead-space (ZDS) floorplans matching the area profiles of any existing floorplanning benchmark circuits can be constructed. A mathematical analysis shows that the aspect ratios of the ZDS benchmarks' blocks are uniformly bounded within [1, 3] in most
